He never did claim to be good at it. He winced as the knife merely bounced off the ice, coming to the same conclusion as Morgan about their unsuitability, just a bit later than she. He accepted it back from the woman with a nod of thanks, listening to her advice.
He was not a fan of the idea of throwing the knives at her, but then he considered it for a moment. Wasn't that the whole point? He was grossly unprepared for a combat situation, and combat situations seemed to be far more likely in the realm of Caido than they did on his home world. Maybe throwing knives wouldn't make much of a difference against an experienced foe, but then, he could only become more experienced himself by starting somewhere.
He nodded in agreement as she stepped back, preparing his grip on the knife again, aiming it to land somewhere near her thigh area. He hoped that she was quick with that hammer to deflect should his path prove true, before he released the weapon once again.
